Please be specific when you post a query otherwise it is not possible to answer. Now will be be possible to tell for anybody about WL taking a lot of time in startup without knowing what the environment is? If there any application deployed on this server, was it starting properly previously, in what stage of startup the server gets stuck.

I have windows xp on my machine. Whenever I shutdown and restart my machine, for the very first time the server startup is very fast..but gradually over the day it takes like 7/8 minutes..till the message is displayed "The config.xml is being read from so and so directory and then it displays all the server logs will be saved under ... directory, after this stage it gets stuck and takes 7/8 minutes..

Thanks,
Trupti

The reason could well be something outside WLS.

Can you post your startscript and the java startup trace that is obtained by specifying -verbose option on the java cmd line in the script.

If you are starting the server in the "DEVELOPMENT MODE" ... it would be a little slower relative to the "PRODUCTION MODE".

If you are running in a cluster Env. and trying to bring up one of the servers that is part of cluster, and is falling short of system resources.

Details of the config.xml also shld help
